Captain Buddy was a great host & made our son’s first fishing trip a memorable one.  We did a 3 hr Bay Trip & it was the perfect amount of time to check out several locations and catch a variety of fish (snapper, speckled trout, redfish) and a BIG one that snapped the line and got away.  While some were not slotted to keep, all were fun to catch & we were able to keep enough for lunch.  Captain Buddy was extremely patient with our son and even let him “drive the boat” for a little bit.  We’d definitely recommend & will be repeat customers on our next trip down.

We really enjoyed our trip out with captain Buddy.  He has a great boat and equipment, and moved us around to several good spots in the bay where we had plenty of action.  We caught several redfish and black drum and even latched on to a good sized one that broke off at the boat😳.  Buddy took time to include our kids with conversation and facts about our bait, fish, and surroundings.  I am not sure I could have picked a better charter or captain in the area. A+

Captain Buddy was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this 4 hour fishing trip for families with kids and the experienced fishermen alike. We were new to saltwater fishing and have preteen girls. They were excited to learn and whinny when hot or tired. Captain Buddy was positive and patient the entire trip. The result was a lot of fun for the kids and a good time for mom and dad too. We all caught fish and learned a lot. Buddy’s communication from booking through pictures he texted us after the trip was outstanding. We are looking forward to our next trip!

This was the best fishing experience me and the family has ever had! Buddy was great with the kids. We caught our limit of red fish and we even had to throw one back that was TOO BIG! My youngest son was able to add 4 new species to his résumé. I would definitely recommend this to any family looking to have a great time while in the Destin area.

Captain Buddy was great! It was a little windy and the water was choppy on our morning, but he still managed to put us on the fish and we were able to keep a few.  He did as much or as little that we asked of him. He was very laid back and enjoyable to be around. I would highly recommend him and would book him again without hesitation.
